Crosstalk-aware multiple-AWG based optical interconnects for datacenter networks

• This paper proposes a crosstalk-aware passive optical interconnect architecture based on multiple arrayed waveguide gratings (AWGs). With two-stage cascaded AWGs, it can realize the communications not only within but also among the clusters for large-scale datacenters. To overcome serious crosstalk in multiple-AWG based optical interconnects, crosstalk suppression schemes are proposed. Proof-of-concept experiments are carried out to verify the necessity and feasibility of the proposed crosstalk suppression schemes for multiple-AWG based optical interconnects.
